Its cake to do, just undo your spark plug wires, and the exhaust manifolds. The passenger side you will have to remove the cat piece. The drivers side went down thru the top, the stock manifold also comes out thru the top. (JBA Shortys)

Passenger side you have to do from the bottom. Holding it up there and starting a bolt was the biggest pain. It would be the only time you would need some help. I did it alone, but the language was pretty bad for that part of install.

The instruction says you have to undo a part of the steering, but I got it in there without messing with it.

I ordered high flow cats, so i removed them. Which gave me a lot more room, but after you unbolt them they will sag a little out of your way. there is 2 bolts/clamp that hold on to the exhaust. You could take them off and the O2 sensor connectors and pull them out of your way. I think you will have to for the passenger side.

It sounds worse than it is, it took me about 3 hours. You can PM me if you need help.
